I should preface this by saying I am a MIL twice over.  Both to my son-in-law and daughter-in-law.  I also know what it's like to have a pushy mother-in-law.  My first husband's mother who was an alpha type personality and "wore the pants in the family"  seemed to always have an opinion on everything.

  I think she tried hard not to come over as pushy but it was just beyond her scope.

She did a few things behind my back that I did not appreciate as well.  

From being foolish enough to let my front garden which is 30' X 30' go for a year while doing rennos on our first duplex.   I weeded for 8 hours straight.   I literally had to replant a blueberry and azalea bush to get the weeds out!

Today I added some more black plastic mulch.  We live surrounded by dairy farms so the weeds are horrendous.   That and the prolific non native invasive plants such as autumn olive.  Arrgh!!

The Animal Torturer (SD 22.5) got another cat.  The old one got (ran) away... good for that kitty.  This poor kitty looks frightened or like it has been teased.   I feel bad for it because it will be neglected or abused with the Animal Torturer as it's owner.  Can't even say "pet parent."  She superimposed another photo of kitty with her very overweight self drinking a soft drink.  Lovely.   Oh wait, it was a dinner out with the Girhippo and StepDaddyBigBucks thus the photo of the soft drink slurping.

Actually three pretty much right in a row.  First a warning letter saying that the HousesHitter (YSS 18)  has been late every day at least an hour to two hours in the morning or altogether absent.

Second letter included his grades which all are graded on a 0 to 100 scale apparently.  Even with an EAP, 55 is passing which is 10 points below non-EAP.   All of his grades are between 19 and 28.  He is even slacking in Varsity chorus!  Being a musical genius, he scored a 75 in piano.   Being athletic, he scored a 65 in PE.  Sarcasm tags OFF.
